Well its official. I cannot sleep and its three in the morning. Currently, there is something dying somewhere outside and i can't find it!! It sounds something between a sheep/chicken/cat thing. Whatever it is has been making horrible noises all night and twice now I have gone out and searched for it but with no luck. So i'm stuck wide awake, bored and thought to myself, "I should update my blog!" So here I am. Here is how married life has been so far!!

The first week was interesting. I was mainly busy unpacking and arranging our new home! oh how mightly lovely it has all come together! I absolutely love the home we are starting together. Julian was working second shifts so things were great! We would have all morning to spend together to do random things until 3:30 when he had to work.I would then spend a while driving myself around El Paso trying to convince myself i wasn't lost...(I was just going to the grocery store, but it took me two and a half hours!! lol) I would make dinner around 7:30 and bring it to the hospital where we would eat dinner together(and with anyone else who was working in the lab. I always made plenty!) I would then do my own thing until midnight when he would come home and we would go to bed together! (one of my favorite things by the way!)

The second week was when things got tougher. They put him on third shift so he was working from midnight to 8:00 in the morning. This shift was tougher because i was alone all night without him. Those nights were spent with me sleeping on the couch normally. This was also the week that I started to miss everyone horribly! It had really hit me that I was not ten minutes from my family and in a city that I still did not trust. It was tougher but we got through it :)

By week three, i was settling in and pretty happy. I got back on a regular routine and kept myself busy. This was a good thing for the fact that Julian started WLC training and is gone from 4:30 in the morning to 8:30 at night. By the time he got off work and home, he was exhausted and I was full of energy! haha So the next hour would be spent with him trying to sleep and me bugging him to play! lol I would finally give up and grab my book to read until i also fell asleep.

And this puts us into week 4. Nothing too exciting has happened yet, but we have just been working on falling into a routine. Things are going great and I absolutely love married life. Julian is still in WLC training and will be until the 12th of July but as I said earlier, I am keeping myself busy! We have gotten out of the house a couple times for dinner and that was awesome! We also just had our first guests over to the house tonight too!! We just celebrated a month of being married and I would have to say, there have been a couple bumps in the road but so far, married life is amazing! I love my husband more than words can say.
